New York Times: Celera to Charge Other Companies to Use Its Genome Data
Submitted by Gary Van Domselaar; posted on Sunday, December 10, 2000

"A company that deciphered the human genome has just submitted a paper for publication. But, in a highly unusual move, the company will not be adhering to the customary practice of simultaneously depositing its gene sequence data in a public repository freely available to all.
Instead, the company, Celera Genomics, will put the data on its Web site, making them available to researchers free and to companies for a fee.
The arrangement, announced by Celera and the editor of the journal Science, who said the paper would be published early next year, highlights the tricky financial issues that accompany the new era of genome research. Celera wants to sell its data. But scientific journals are committed to making all data related to its papers public.
So how, Science's editors had asked, could they satisfy these conflicting goals? And did they want to set a precedent?"
